Horizontal line, Low to High Flow, Springless, Crevice-Free

Two piece, spring-less horizontal line sanitary check valve for bioprocess media and purified water applications for the biopharmaceutical, pharmaceutical, food & beverage and consumer health & beauty industries:

WFI loop: non-return at pump out
Media/buffer prep: back flow prevention during dilution
Upstream process: sparge line back flow prevention
Separation: centrifuge waste line back flow prevention
Purification, chromatography: waste line back flow prevention
Pump head pressure maintenance or pressure bypass
F & B and consumer H & B process inputs, outputs, purified water and clean utility back flow prevention

Features & Benefits

Removal of traditional spring and stem guide:
- eliminates areas where bioburden and bacteria can accumulate
- potential for particulate generation
No hold up
High flow rates with minimal pressure loss an increased flow compared with mechanical return check valves.
Very low cracking (opening) pressure
